SB SOX (20-30mmHg): The best I’ve tried thus far (and I’ve tried a lot of compression socks). Suffered from multiple DVT’s in the left leg due to several veins collapsing during one of the surgeries. They installed some 6+ FT of stents on the veinous side to save the leg (one of the FDA studies out there). Anyway, the end result is that I now get to wear compression stockings from now on. These are simply the best compression stockings that I’ve found so far (including the medical grade ones you need an Rx for – that simply cost 4-times as much, but have same rating and do the same thing). The band at the top does not cut, they provide good/solid compression from the ankle up, and they make your legs feel great. I’ve tried some brands that I’ve simply had to throw away after wearing them once (they were that bad or the band at the top was simply not worth it). For walking/exercise, the SB-SOX also feel great and help during and after the walk (can now do 5-8K’s). Or, if you are on your feet all day, these socks will make you feel better when you get to the end of the day (at least your legs will feel better). For the athletes, I can see these socks helping runners at any distance. The vendor is terrific to deal with and they are always willing to help (vendor provides some nice discounts for buying more than one – and you’ll want to buy more than one so that you don’t have to wash them every night). The only other one that I’d recommend is made by “Run Forever Sports” (also a 20-30mmHg compression) – they feel just as good. The SB-SOX’s are a little cheaper out the gate and if you are buying more than 1-pair, they give you a 5% discount for each added pair (up to 30% off for 6-pair). For the money, the SB-SOX’s are my go-to brand and I suspect I’ll eventually be wearing this brand exclusively (once I’ve weeded out or worn out the sub-par brands that I’ve tried………or once I’ve worn them enough that I can justify throwing them out; as they are expensive and I wanted to try and get some use out of the other brands that I still have). To anyone out there that wants to simply feel better at the end of a race or at the end of the day – give this brand a try. To anyone out there that needs to wear them for a medical condition (such as DVT’s or the pain caused by them), you also will not be disappointed (hang in there and I hope you get some relief).
Disclaimer: I paid for each pair of SB-Sox’s that I own out of my own pocket and rec’d nothing for free (also got nothing for the time I spent to write this review). At times, I do wonder if the review is unbiased or not and I also wonder if the review can truly be unbiased if the product was given to them for free (I suppose it can be done – but you do still wonder). Anyway, we’ve all seen reviews where a product was given to a person for free or in exchange for an ‘honest-review’. I wanted to put in the same sort of disclaimer – just stating that I paid for them outright. I do try to read reviews when I’m looking to make a purchase and I do appreciate when an honest review is available. While I don’t write many reviews, I wanted to at least provide the same courtesy to others that I look for. So, I’ll try to find time when a product is working for me and at least provide some feedback – hence this (long-winded) review.
Best regards.

Just bought the socks a few weeks ago, so durability is something I can not rate but from the rest of the things it is exactly what I needed. What a relief for my legs as I walk the whole day ( I am a dog walker) they are comfortable and has the right pressure for my legs and the circulation of the blood. My legs don’t finish as tired as before.

My doctor recently told me I needed to be wearing compression stockings due to lymphedema from a previous foot surgery, and before I left her office that day, she printed for me two stockings from Amazon that she recommended, and these compression stockings were one of them (the other pair was the color of regular nylons for women which is not a color offered here–though I do wish “tan” or “khaki” could be colors offered here). She told me if I went to a medical supply company to get the stockings, they would cost me a great deal of money, and I know that is true because I purchased one pair shortly after the surgery several years ago.
These stockings are a bit easier (easier–not easy) to put on than my original pair, and I don’t find them quite as tight as my original pair, but I do feel the compression, and they are comfortable to wear. They stay up, and the top does not roll down (my original stockings stay up, but the top does roll down, and that moves into the uncomfortable-to-a-little-painful category). I ordered the white, black, gray and argyle stockings, and, oddly, I find the gray ones to have a higher level of compression than the others; I consider that to be a good thing even though it does increase the challenge of getting them on and off.
One of the things I don’t especially like about these stockings is how they pick up every bit of floor “fluff” if you walk around without shoes on–even briefly. The socks seem to have a quality that does not allow fluff to be brushed off with your hand, and must be picked off bit by bit. And since they cannot be washed in hot water (I think directions call for a gentle cold-water wash which is how I wash them), I had/have big doubts on how to keep the white ones looking clean. My solution to this issue is to wear a pair of thin, white cotton ankle socks over the top of the compression stockings. That way if I get extra dirty walking around in the dirt (gardening or other lawn/yard work), I can wash the thin, cotton ankle socks in a hot-water wash with bleach to get them clean while the compression stockings should stay free of dirt. There is a small down side to this method: it does take up more room in my shoes, and the compression stockings are a substantial knit in the first place.
Based on the size chart (which appears in one of the options you can click on underneath the picture of the stockings), I was not really sure which size to purchase. Based on my shoe size, it seemed I should be ordering a Medium. Based on the size of my calves, I should be ordering a Large. I decided to go with the Large because I did not want to risk the top band cutting too deeply into the area below my knees. When I take the stockings off at night, I do have a compression groove in that area, and sometimes it might itch there for a couple minutes, but rubbing it for a few moments takes care of the itchy feeling. Buying the Large size probably accounts for the difference between the level of compression I feel between these compression stockings and the pair I purchased after the surgery; when I purchased my original pair (from medical supply company) after the surgery, my leg had been measured after I had not been allowed to walk for six months and, therefore, my leg was devoid of muscle tone, and my calf was extra skinny.
I hope it helps to say that when you order these stockings, the price is for a pair of stockings–not just one stocking. I say this because I still look at other sources for stockings, and sometimes it isn’t really clear on whether a person will get one stocking (singular) or a pair of stockings for the price listed.
I wish there was a uniform “standard” by which we could compare features of compression stockings. I am planning to order some stockings from another company soon so I can get some which merely look like “nylons.” Instead of a shoe size and calf measurement for that company, they use a calf measurement along with the distance from the floor to the bend in a person’s knee. Maybe they both end up with the same result, but I will have to wait and see.
I like these well enough, so far, to believe I will order more in the future.

I bought a pair of SB SOX when I was dealing with swollen legs due to a health issue. I tried many different brands, but these were the best I found. Fast forward a few years and my husband needed compression socks so I gave him all that I had on hand. You guessed it! SB SOX were his favorite, so I bought him three more pairs. He says they have improved them a bit since my first pair. They are a bit longer and more comfortable. I wash them in the washer and then hang them to air dry. He wears them daily in his work boots and they are holding up nicely.

I purchased my very first pair of compression socks on Amazon which was 8 pairs for approx. $18. I read where these socks can be difficult and watched videos on how to easily put them on. I had no difficulty putting them on and they basically felt like regular dress socks. Then I purchased the SB sox and I immediately noticed the difference. There was definitely a compression difference the the SBs and they have to be put on properly. Putting them on is not difficult and they provide the proper support I need for long days on my feet. They are quite comfortable and stay snug and in place all day long. Needless to say I tossed the cheaper socks and purchased additional pairs of the SBs. I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to try compression sox or to any current user looking for a brand that delivers excellent quality and fit. Thank You SB!
